MMORPG: Rise of The Dungeon Master.

Roan knew that the concept of a War General without an army was absurd. This concept stared into his past life as the commanding type of class in the game faced an immense, uncrossable wall in their gaming carrier.

It was the concept of Active Commander and Passive commander. Every commander had an active phase which was when they were new and unknown to others.

In this active phase, the commander had the power to change the outcome of the war, but this phase was very short, and quickly the commander shifts to the passive state and became useless.

This was such an immense problem, but no commander throughout the game could solve this problem in his last life. No matter if they were top guilds or small ones all tried different approaches to avoid that wall and moved around, they were all unsuccessful in that.

A class type that had such an immense power that could change the fate of the guild, but it had such a major weakness. Many come around and suggested many kinds of theories about this flaw and how to counter it. And Roan was most impressed by the theory of army less general in those hundreds of theories.

He did not know if this was practically possible or not, but he believed his brother might solve this.

'My work finished after hinting this problem to him.' Roan stopped thinking about all this. He knew that the effort required to solve this problem was not something he could do.

Roan mind was about to go blank when he heard Dhruv's voice, "Why did you know all this?"

Silence…. Shit, this is bad. He kept his eyes closed.

Dhruv stared at him and asked, "Who are you? You can't be my brother. My brother can't be this smart."

"Don't disturb lil boy shoo," Roan motioned with his hand, "go play somewhere else."

Dhruv continued to stare at him and walked next to him and said, "I know you have 1 year extra, but still this is not something a low brain can think of."

This ticked him, but Roan did not respond, as it may make the matter worse.

Dhruv continued to speak. "How can an idiot as you think of something that even a genius like me can't think of?"

Roan opened his eyes and stared at Dhruv. This was too much for him to ignore.

"No, it can be that right!" Dhruv gasped as Roan looked at him. Roan raised his eyebrow at him. Dhruv continued to speak with a shocked look on his face. "Did I get the mental weakness?"

"Oh, come on." Roan moved to get hold of Dhruv.

Dhruv jumped away and said, "Did you spread your idiot-ness illness to me?"

Roan rubbed his forehead and said, "No snacks for you this entire week."

Dhruv looked at him with a mocking smile on his face. "Do you take me as an 8-year-old like yourself? Hehe," He started laughing at Roan.

Roan stared at him and said in a serious tone, "Big Smarty, you really are a big boy, I see." He nodded, "good for you that you are not like the little idiot of me."

"Hehehe, no need to flatter me."

Roan shook his head, "Now, Big boy needs to eat healthy, so for this entire week I will eat ice cream daily while you will eat the healthy green veggies."

Dhruv stopped laughing and stared at him and said, "you can't do that."

Roan smiled at him and said, "Nope, you are a big boy now. Ice cream is for babies like me, right?"

Dhruv pointed his finger at him. "You... I am big enough to decide what to eat or not?"

Roan grabbed one side of his head and said in irritation. "If you did not stop disturbing me, I will force you to drink all those bitter herbal tonics for oldies."

Dhruv placed a finger on his lips. Roan nodded his head and then relaxed on the sofa. Playing the game for so long was now showing the side effect. His head felt like it would burst at any moment. Roan closed his eyes and after a few mins, he blank out. He started snoring.

Dhruv slowly backed away while making sure not to make any noise. He switched off the light in the room and walked up stair to his room. "Chess player is it." He mumbled to himself while going into his room.

…

Roan opened his eyes. There was no light in the room. He grabbed his mobile and checked the time. "Oh, it's 2 am."

He stood up and used the flashlight on the mobile and switched on the light.

"ahh," Bright light assaulted him. After getting used to the light, he looked around. There was no one present there.

He started a little and walked to the kitchen and took a glass of water. He picked up his phone and started going through it while walking around the room.

Roan mind was back to the Game. He started thinking about all the experiments that he had done.

All these experiments helped him finalize the preparation phase of the mega experiment. He now had a basic, plausible way to proceed with the ultimate experiment.

In the 3-step experiment. He had no problem with the first step which needed to germinate the world tree seed. He even had the resources to start this step.

The main fcked up step was the second one. This step was combining the snake and world tree essence.

"Now I know that for this step I need tons of snake poison and a lot of snake essence," Roan mumbled to himself.

He solved the mystery of combining plant and snake essence. In this step, he planned to use a large amount of poison to temporarily weaken the world tree essence and then add as many snake essence to reach the stability of the combined essence.

That was the overall solution that he reached. "Well, this looks feasible, but how the hell I am gonna add so many snake essences  in the experiment." Roan knew that he need at least around 1000 snake essence then only the snake essence was able to counter the 1 World tree essence. That was only when he take the minimum value this number could be increased.

Adding the 1000s of snake essence was impossible in the little time frame that gene combination worked.

Roan knew he had solved one part of this experiment. That was the snake part but the thing was he did not make any progress with the plant side.

How could he add so many snake essence to one world tree pant essence? He needed to solve this last problem and then all paths would be set for him to proceed with this experiment.

Roan continued to scroll through his phone, reading all the information about the plant. The basic detail of how plant life survives to the inner working for how the internal of plant work.

What was the effect of the environment on the plant? How could we make changes to them? He started reading all the facts and proposed theories regarding the plant.

He knew that only the last key was missing and researching the plant might help in this. He even spent an hour reading different myths about the World tree.

Hours passed away like this but Roan continued to immerse himself in the phone. After 6hr hrs of going through it, he put his mobile phone down.

Wasting no time he rushed to his room and jumped in the gaming pod. He had a theory that he want to test immediately. He logged into the game.

Grave opened his eyes and found himself back in the lab. He looked around and saw that the lab was in tip-top condition, with everything clean. This surprised him. "mmmm, I will award her after I am done with all of this."

Grave summoned his notes and wrote all the ideas in them. After that, he opened the Dungeon master forum.

[ Snake master: Hi guys.

Element master: Oh hi snake. How is your experiment going?

Skeleton master: Hi snake, did you achieve any success in the experiment?

Demon master: Hello snake.

Snake master: Well guys, I did have some breakthroughs, but I am still far away from success.

Pink master: haha I knew that.

Element master: Stupid pink controls your jealousy.

Pink master: Hey I am not jealous or anything.

Skeleton mater: Don't worry snake, you will achieve success. Do not lose hope.

Demon master: Same as what skeleton said.

Snake master: Guy, I want some resources.

Element master: Hey if this is about plant essence, don't worry. I will send you the rest of the plant essence tomorrow.

Snake master: No, it's not about that. I need help with some other resources.

Skeleton mater: Oh, what kind of help do you want?

Pink master: Do you want more orcs?

Element master: Pink is so desperate, hehe.

Snake master: Guy I want help with 2 things. One was a premium quality resource and the other one was a monster-type request.

Demon master: Go no.

Skeleton master: Tell us.

Snake master: First, I need either fairy honey or elves wine. Anyone of these could do but I need the best top-quality one.

Pink master: Whoa, are you out of your mind? Even the simplest, most basic elves' wine is priced at half of the gold coin, and where the hell you can get the top quality elves' wine?

Element master: yeah, and forget about fairy honey. That thing was so rare that to even get a negligible amount of a low type of that you need to spend at least lots of gold coins.
